Mate, i like your vids, but… Are you sure you raise the vehicle on the right place? I dont know x300, but on xj40, you can deform a floor panel for sure, when you raise it like that…

If you've got the adaptive suspension on the x308, don't be too quick to find $$$ replacements. Quite often the system needs a reset using the jag laptop app and will be pretty nice afterwards.
Ps, change the fuel filter next! I did mine and the change in performance is amazing.
